2 Chronicles 33:7-9

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁷ Then he put ^(A)the carved image of the idol which he had made in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, “^(B)In this house and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen from all the tribes of Israel, I will put My name forever; ⁸ and I will not again remove the foot of Israel from the land ^(C)which I have appointed for your fathers, if only they will observe to do all that I have commanded them according to all the law, the statutes and the ordinances given through Moses.” ⁹ Thus Manasseh misled Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to do more evil than the nations whom the Lord destroyed before the sons of Israel.
